Hi Everybody,
Yesterday, our production database was crashed as soon as we added an invlid entry in the pg_hba.conf file. Immediately, after the SIGHUP it tried to read the pg_hba.conf file and it couldnt validate the IP address and restarted the postgres server, as soon as we change the pg_hba.conf with the right entry everything was back to normal. Attached you will see the postgres log file at the time of the crash. Postgres version we are using is 7.4.2. Is this somekind of bug ? if so, is it fixed in Postgres 8 ? shouldnt it just give an error saying invalid IP address instead of restarting postgres ? Thanks!
